John Wu created AS7-5864: ---------------------------- Summary: Classes of a module cannot get access to the META-INF folder in its own jar/module Key: AS7-5864 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-5864 Project: Application Server 7 Issue Type: Bug Components: Class Loading Affects Versions: 7.1.1.Final Reporter: John Wu Assignee: David Lloyd Currently there is absolutely no mechanism for classes of a module to get access to some META-INF/xyz files in its own jar/module, except are in META-INF/services. This is a serious impediment when considering the installation of third party libraries as shared libraries (modules) in JBoss AS. Some frameworks may rely upon locating internal descriptors in META-INF, and if the libraries are installed as modules, the descriptors are not accessible to the framework itself. Essentially, there is no way of accessing resources under META-INF unless they are either services, or the library is packaged in the deployment.
